You need to set the position of the layer, on the Image View. Add this in the buttonPressed method:

//Position of the imgView
CGRect frame = _img.layer.frame;

float xCoord = frame.origin.x + frame.size.width;
float yCoord = frame.origin.y + frame.size.height;

CGPoint myPoint = CGPointMake(xCoord, yCoord);
_img.layer.position = myPoint;

[self startRefreshAnimation]

that way, you can move the imageView around in the .xib, and the animation will take place the correct spot.

Edit: The solution by @Nishant is so much prettier..
